This makes perfect sense. How one can claim that <?= "reads better"
as a good reason to lose portability is beyond me. Too lazy to type
two more characters may be a more logical reason to use <?=.
Writing code knowing that <?php is portable but still using <?= is a
good sign of a bad programmer. That and commenting would be things
I'd look for when looking at example code to decide if a coder is
worth hiring.
